Existing Vessels
IHM required for disposal
• Wait until end of life?
• Easiest – no maintenance
• Difficult to get backup data EU Ship Recycling Regulation
from vendors, shipyards • Entered into force 2013
• Non-EU flagged vessels
Avoid the rush for HazMat >500GT will require a verified
experts IHM by end 2020
• 2 extra chemicals to be
Be prepared for regional inventoried relative to IMO
actions requirements
• Upcoming European rule • Found mostly in fire retardant
constituents of flooring, cable
as an example - do we sheaths, AFFF, gaskets, seals,
need it earlier? etc.
Be a leader?

Summary
IHM must have an impact on new build costs
• Major supply chain effort
Maintenance of IHM/Green Passport will be a
significant effort and tracking challenge
• Few suppliers are accustomed to providing supporting
documentation, particularly distributors/agents
There will be a major effort to build IHM for existing
vessels, now or later
• Must recognize this requirement when planning for disposals,
if, as Owners, we want to be responsible recyclers.
